    Legends of Runeterra - Card game by Riot Games

    I think stealing from the bottom of the enemy's deck instead of the top is a no-brainer at this point. The functionality is already in the game, they just need to change it.

    If Mystic Shot wasn't able to target Nexus, then not blocking Rearguard turn 1 would be less punishing. It would also nerf the Ezreal combo by a bit.

    My theory is that he's still too slow vs. aggro and the current midrange decks can still punch through him. It's certainly a powerful effect, but I think it ultimately won't make much of a difference.

    The Shen change is pretty significant. He's looking like a good contender for deck slots now. (You can even play him just for his stat line in expeditions, though it's too bad Riposte has been removed from some archetypes). I disagree with the Vi change. I think Riot misunderstands why Vi is...

    I play Nox/Freljord and when that card gets dropped, I basically have to pray I have enough burn/Overwhelm to close out the game or I'm just dead. I think the card would be fine if it actually came out on Round 8, but because of how spell mana works it's getting played on Round 5 which is...

    RIP Brad. You're among Jim Morrison, Prince, and the rest of the rockstars now.

    Yeah a lot of people I used to dominate Aranzeb with are going back but like I said earlier, it just wouldn't be the same so I'm not going to do it. The knowledge gap is going to be massive and all the returners will be at a huge disadvantage unless they can find some people who stuck with it to...

    Maybe. I've been taking a break from games in general right now and it's been really refreshing. I'll hit you up if I change my mind.

    I started a static with my brother and we were having a great time, but I got a new job which conflicts with the schedule. Real life has to come first. I would form a new static with a new schedule but earliest I could raid would be like 7:30pm West coast time on weekdays, which is basically...

    After the second week of savage I stopped logging in. I really want to find sustained entertainment in this game but I can't. There's tons of people everywhere but the game feels like a ghost town.

    Weeks, months, doesn't matter, that would be time better spent getting to know someone that at least has the same values as you.

    Why waste time? There's thousands of single women just a swipe away, no point in wasting months with someone and then breaking up due to life path differences that could've been ironed out earlier.

    Used this line on a third date last night and it landed really well. She seemed pretty adamantly agreed so I'm pretty sure she wasn't just saying it so I would like her.

    If this was TLP server I would be down. Would love to restart the game from pre-1.0 with an uncucked business model. But starting over on whatever their current patch is does not appeal to me.

    Game was killed before Trion ever touched it. All they had to do was negotiate for more control in the license. But they were floundering due to the failure of Defiance, End of Nations, and Warface, so they couldn't pull it off.

    Why did they keep messing with this shit after the first big balance patch? The game was in a REALLY solid state after that. Hearing that they've been messing around with fundamental gameplay elements even more makes me not want to play it again.

    Honestly, I don't know any MNKs that try to get the Anatman tick in their opener. It's super cheesy and equates to such a tiny DPS gain that it's almost imperceptible. If that's what you're worried about, don't be. I have quite a few friends that are 90+ percentile MNKs and none of them do the...

    If you remove the MP cost from TBN, you also have to remove the free EoS if it pops, otherwise it just becomes another offensive DPS boost to hit on CD, which would be really cancerous for the spirit of the class.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    TBN doesn't cost any resources either... there's never a reason to go below 3000 MP on DRK so you always have enough to use TBN.

    DRK already has the strongest self-mitigation tools out of all the tanks. We don't need buffs in that area but I mean, I'll take 'em lol

    Det is definitely better than crit right now, with possibly an exception for SCH if you find yourself casting Adlo a lot.

    The combined role quest at the end isn't nearly as good as the role quests leading up to it. I was severely disappointed.

    There are a myriad of issues with FFXIV. Hekotat's complaint is not one of them.

    I disagree with this. A good DNC can pump out 8-9k on their own and their buffs add at least another 1-2k raid DPS. The class is absolutely absurd, they even eclipse NIN + Trick Attack.

    Noodle, why are you being so critical of your positioning?

    The pro strategy is to have your tanks handle the lightning tether by themselves and then share Fae Light. That way you have minimal reliance on retard DPS and healers.

    God, I hope not. Might also have something to do with the the Ishgard restoration, which I think is being introduced this expansion.

    Odd patches are also when Ultimates get released, if we get any more this expansion. I think the dev team said we might be getting one, but I can't remember.

    Probably not, they don't usually do this until a later patch.

    Yeah it sucks. As a rule of thumb, always handle the big chapter quest first before doing any kingdom upgrading. Sidequests you can do along the way as most of them won't take more than a day or two to complete and they'll grant you EXP - really the only thing you shouldn't be doing is kingdom...

    This. FFXIV plugin parses from network data, not a log file, so it needs an exception in Windows Firewall. Alternatively, you can tell the plugin to parse from your memory, but it's pretty inaccurate.

    Depends on the context. "Trap party" = a party that intends to be a farm/clear party but can't actually farm or clear, wasting everyone's time. "Trap" in reference to a person = guy pretending to be a girl.

    I really don't recommend M+KB players turn off the auto-face target feature because of problems like this. XIV has a really wonky engine that can lead to some really annoying behaviors, but for best performance you want to learn to work with it instead of against it. When you are running in a...
